The Phillips Georgia Legion (or Phillips Legion of Georgia or simply Phillips Legion) rates its own chapter in the novel, for its co-starring part in the attack on Fort Sanders. Although this stirring little animation of its battle flag does not include any mention of Knoxville.

The Legion was famous enough in its own right, however, even towards the tail-end of the war—its officers claiming pride-of-place (though disputed) in its having been the last Rebel regiment to leave Richmond in the city’s April 3-4, 1865, evacuation.
